BURNS AND FIRES
The muffler, muffler guard and other parts of the engine be-
come extremely hot during the operation of the engine. These
parts remain extremely hot after the engine has stopped.
Prevention of Burns and Fires
• Never remove the muffler guard from the engine.
• Never touch the muffler guard because it is extremely hot
and will cause severe burns.
• Never touch parts of the engine that become hot after
operation.
• Always keep materials and debris away from muffler guard
and other hot parts of the engine to avoid fires.
CHILDREN AND BYSTANDERS
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the
presence of children and/or bystanders. Never assume that
others will remain where you last saw them.
• Keep the area of operation clear of all persons, especially
small children and pets. Keep children under the watchful
care of a responsible adult.
• Never allow children to operate the machine.

other debris build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage. Allow
machine to cool before storing.
